Note: This README assumes that there is already Docker installed on the host machine, either Windows, MacOS or Linux. For more info on how to obtain Docker, please visit:

https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop

Start by downloading the content of this repo, either through git clone https://github.com/AUTh-csal/Docker.git or by zip download here:

https://github.com/AUTh-csal/Docker/archive/main.zip

Afterwards, by opening a terminal or Command Prompt, according to your host OS, navigate to the folder where the extracted data is (default extracted folder is Docker). There you can see the following directory structure (timestamps may vary!):

2020-09-29  08:57    <DIR>          .
2020-09-29  08:57    <DIR>          ..
2020-10-07  15:12             3 703 Dockerfile
2020-09-29  08:57                47 hpc-build-image
2020-09-29  08:57                85 hpc-create-container
2020-09-29  08:57                89 hpc-start-container
2020-09-29  08:57                78 hpc-uninstall
2020-09-29  08:57               786 Welcome
2020-09-29  08:57    <DIR>          Windows

For Windows users, navigate to the Windows directory and then run hpc-build-image.bat, hpc-create-container.bat and hpc-start-container.bat. The screenshots below show the expected behavior respectively (folder names may vary, I have used c:\git\Docker2 as my base folder).

For Linux and MacOS users, remain in this folder, run hpc-build-image, hpc-create-container and hpc-start-container.

After succesfully having built, created and ran the container, you should be able to see the following screen, aka welcome screen.

Then you can clone our pds-codebase repo by envoking the command git clone https://github.com/AUTh-csal/pds-codebase.git inside the container, as shown in the screenshow below.

Then you can cd into the new folder by cd pds-codebase and do a make all and make test and you should be able to build all the hello world examples and run their respective tests as show below.
